Hopes and Dreams

During the first 6 weeks of school, we always like to set some goals for the coming year. This goal setting is framed for first graders as "Hopes and Dreams". We have been reading and listening to stories which reflect this theme.

 In "Surfer Chick" we read about a youngster who was able to finally learn to surf, after some coaching and a persistent attitude. 

We also read a book about six year olds, and some of the things they liked to do, and hoped to do in school.

We listened to a third story, "The Curious Garden"(click to listen), and discovered what a difference, just one person can make.

 Finally, each first grader completed their own "Hopes and Dreams".
 Please come to Open House this week( Thursday at 6:15) to view these lovely pieces.
